The Club Council met in the Great Hall Monday to discuss current activities the Associated Student Organization (ASO) will be having soon, including a rally against budget cuts and Club Rush.
ASO advisor Brad Saenz oversaw the meeting and announced that the ASO is organizing a rally on campus. The clubs will not only meet to protest the impending fee increase, but there will also be a debate between professors.
“Even though they have not settled on a date, there is a 9o percent chance it will happen because they have March 14 in mind and its getting close,” said Saenz.
The meeting also discussed the Club Rush, which will be taking place Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. in an effort to recruit new members in clubs on campus.
There will also be a dessert contest between clubs during the Club Rush. Winner of the first prize will receive $250 to the club’s account. The runner-up will receive $100.
Some clubs in the meeting did not sound enthusiastic regarding the Club Rush because it will be very hectic. Saenz announced they do not have enough tables. There are 25 clubs, but they only have 10 to 15 tables and two tents.
Club Rush will take place on the Mall, and it is open to all Pierce College students.
